The Round House CD: A Novel
Autor Louise Erdrich Gary Farmeren Limba Engleză CD-Audio – 7 ian 2013
One of the most revered novelists of our time—a brilliant chronicler of Native-American life—Louise Erdrich returns to the territory of her bestselling, Pulitzer Prize finalistThe Plague of DoveswithThe Round House, transporting readers to the Ojibwe reservation in North Dakota. It is an exquisitely told story of a boy on the cusp of manhood who seeks justice and understanding in the wake of a terrible crime that upends and forever transforms his family.
Riveting and suspenseful, arguably the most accessible novel to date from the creator ofLove Medicine,The Beet Queen, andThe Bingo Palace, Erdrich’sThe Round Houseis a page-turning masterpiece of literary fiction—at once a powerful coming-of-age story, a mystery, and a tender, moving novel of family, history, and culture.

Textul de pe ultima copertă
In
the
spring
of
1988,
a
woman
living
on
a
reservation
in
North
Dakota
is
attacked.
Geraldine
Coutts
is
traumatized
and
reluctant
to
relive
or
reveal
what
happened,
either
to
the
police
or
to
her
husband,
Bazil,
and
thirteen-year-old
son,
Joe.
While
his
father,
who
is
a
tribal
judge,
endeavors
to
wrest
justice
from
a
situation
that
defies
his
efforts,
Joe
sets
out
to
get
some
answers
of
his
own.
The
quest
takes
him
first
to
the
Round
House,
a
sacred
space
and
place
of
worship
for
the
Ojibwe.
And
this
is
only
the
beginning.
Louise
Erdrich's
novel
embraces
tragedy,
the
comic,
a
spirit
world
very
much
present
in
the
lives
of
her
all-too
human
characters,
and
a
tale
of
injustice
that
is,
unfortunately,
an
authentic
reflection
of
what
happens
in
our
own
world
today.
